I've learned that "kontroli" is a false friend. Using which other word(s) may I express "to control" in Esperanto?

    JC Wells says kontroli is to check/audit/supervise, so a different sense of to control. So technically not a false friend, but an ambiguity of the English word, which is translated as different words in Eo. Sep 9, 2016 at 8:31

The closest verb for to control is probably regi. In some contexts, you might also use stiri, konduki, etc.
